Without having looked at the code I'd expect something like makesound(); sleep(<value of -l>); stopsound(); So maybe just the manpage needs an update and change from -l N beep for N milliseconds. to something like -l N beep and stop the sound again after N milliseconds. > Same when -r is used. At least "while :; do beep -l 1 -r 0; done" does make no sound as at least I expect. But "beep -l 0 -r 100" makes some sound but very quietly.
